I've only been on my bike and my buds Interceptor 500 and his 92 VFR 750. I'm sure any style of sport bike will suit your needs for the way you want to ride better than the max will. As far as speed is concerned, it'll be more than you'll need for the twisties. I can't keep up for anything in the straights with the people I've been on group rides with but I've gotten much better in the twisties and to me that's where it all matters. I say trade if you like it.
